While traditional conservation strategies often prioritize old-growth or remnant vegetation, new research highlights that younger regrowth can serve as viable habitat for a surprising number of threatened species. The study revealed that many species can begin using regrowth forests well before they reach maturity. On average, threatened species started using regrowth at around 15 years of age. For some, including seed-eating birds and koalas, regrowth can provide functional habitat in under a decade. In total, seven out of 30 species studied could use regrowth between just three and ten years of age.<\/p>\n<p>Despite its ecological importance, regrowth vegetation often falls outside current land clearing regulations in Queensland. The result: around 71% of the identified habitat loss for threatened species was from unregulated regrowth clearing. As landholders and policymakers look toward more sustainable land management practices, regrowth forests could offer an avenue for low-cost, high-impact conservation\u2014if they&#8217;re better recognized in planning tools, policies, and offset frameworks.<\/p>\n<p>Experts suggest that where threatened species are known to use regrowth vegetation\u2014whether permanently or seasonally\u2014that information should be systematically integrated into environmental impact assessments and recovery plans. Doing so would help ensure that regrowth areas are factored into land use decisions.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.environmentenergyleader.com\/stories\/regrowth-forests-offer-new-hope-for-threatened-species,73587\">Environment Energy Leader<\/a><\/p>\n<p><p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/5-706\/\">Regrowth Vegetation Key to Threatened Species Survival, Study Finds<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,8168,18614,16940,6737],"class_list":["post-139185","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-queensland","tag-regrowth","tag-threatened-species","tag-vegetation"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139185","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=139185"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139185\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=139185"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=139185"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=139185"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
